This statement is TRUE.

A counterculture is defined as a cultural system whose norms and behaviors differ from the ones generally accepted in mainstream society. Countercultural movements emerge inside those mainstream societies, mainly because some groups of people stop sharing the generally accepted principles and become critical to them. In fact, such movements can be the starting point of dramatic cultural changes.

  • Organized crime is a manner of subculture which shows disrespect for the mainstream rules and functions according to a different and own system. Therefore it is a counterculture.
  • The hippie movement was the main counterculture of the 1960s-1970s. It was an anti-establishment phenomenon and was very visible during the Civil Rights Movement and in the protests that opposed the US policies in Vietnam.
